Plum Vainqueur track bike (team WBV) from Vlaams Wielercentrum Eddy Merckx

hehe true..

Will measure later on, I think it's about 22cm though!

Cheers! The Colossi's chart says 235mm and Goldsprint's says 228mm. Not a huge difference, but would be interesting to see which is right... Anyone spoken to Goldsprint using their contact form, by the way? Any idea how long it took to get a reply from them?

I've sent them a couple of emails, both directly and using their contact form. Also sent a message on their facebook. Never got a reply... It's been over a month now.

yet they are active on the 'gram

I'll keep my eyes peeled for a 25.4 120mm stem, till then I threw on my old Cult BMX grips.. I remember them being too mushy, but when stretched out a bit, they seem fine for now.

Ideally I'd like some 3/4mm Yoshidas, or some strong Vs, but free>£££. Spotter's Proper Team grips also seem great!

Looks lovely.

Thx Indra, not gonna lie, I loved the bumblesetup, but I prefer the classic looking build.

I say classic looking, cos only the headset and cranks are vintage...

Current spec is:

Phil 110.5mm sealed BB
Campag Pista 170mm 52t
Campag C record headset
Izumi chain
Nitto B260AA bars/ Pearl stem/ barends
generic 27.2mm seatpost
Rolls
System Ex hubs/Mavic Open Pro, Panaracer Pasela 23c tyres
EAI 19t cog

One of my favourite builds Apollo. Nice one

Does look great now, needs a longer stem though

Looks great with risers, You should put red cloth tape on them like you had on the drops.

I have a couple rolls of that Newbaums spare. It is lovely, just very unforgiving

I suppose I have to buy this stem

Why? 3t quills are shit.

You're missing the point....

Why? 3t quills are shit.

This is not true.. Although I don't see the urge for one of those stems. Bike looks perfect as is.

You're missing the point....

No, you're missing the point...

They're about as stiff as a soggy weetabix.

They just can't handle your weight.

If you want a bike that feels like it steers like an unstable boat, then get the 3t...

but the Plum panto!

They don't show up every day, that's true.

Also, Pearl 10 is too short.

Buy it then, but keep the pearl... Just in case.

I need to find one of those!

Cinelli 1a 130mm?
